[Polarhome] gate upgrade

[zoltan.arpadffy@essnet.se]

hi,

yesterday (11th Dec) happened something very strange with the Linux server gate.polarhome.com
I could not find the real reason, but the short list candidates are:
1. hacker attack
2. network problem
3. kernel failure

So for security reasons, I upgraded all outstanding (and forgotten) packages on the system and now it is on patched RedHat 7.2 level. Only exception is PostgreSQL. I downgraded it, because the new version refused to work with shadow file.

Total downtime was about 7 hours. Meanwhile non of the servers behind the gate were accessible.
Sorry about inconvenience.

Regards, Z
